Ok. I'm getting close. Using this code

Private Sub cmbSideInd_KeyDown(ByVal KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger, ByVal Shift As Integer)
If KeyCode = 46 Then cmbSideInd.Clear
End Sub

does clear the box but then if you click the drop down again the whole thing is blank. I want to clear out the user's selection NOT the drop down list itself. Any ideas on how to accomplish that?

Thanks,
